writes:Bronze Age Miniatures was kind enough to send Ajax in for the TMP Showcase, and Combatpainter Painting Studios took the commission to paint him.
The Greeks range from Bronze Age is a mix of both historical and mythological personages. Ajax is a character from The Iliad, and also features in the Epic Cycle of poetry about the Trojan War.
Ajax is known for fighting with a spear and shield.
(In this case, Ajax is using an alternate shield - not the shield that normally comes with this model.)
The 'bulwark of the Mycenaeans', Ajax was trained by a centaur, and is a man of large frame and exceptional strength. He survives the Trojan War, only to commit suicide when disappointed in the division of spoils.
